What he did say is that "MB&F would never make a chronograph like all the other chronographs out there." After 17 years, MB&F is introducing Legacy Machine Sequential EVO, featuring the debut appearance of MB&F's 20th movement, in the first chronograph wristwatch of MB&F, conceived by one of the very earliest MB&F collaborators and Friends, Stephen McDonnell. Northern Irish watchmaker Stephen McDonnell is counted among the key figures who brought the first creations of Max Büsser into the world. He was one of the handful of watchmakers who assembled the first few movements for what would become Horological Machine Nº1.
The dial plate of LM Sequential EVO, available in atomic orange or coal black, features two chronograph displays. One has its seconds display at 9 o'clock and minutes display at 11 o'clock. The other has its seconds display at 3 o'clock and minutes display at 1 o'clock. Each of these chronograph displays can be started, stopped and reset completely independently of each other, using the start/stop and reset pushers on their respective sides of the case. These make up the four chronograph pushers you would usually associate with having two chronograph mechanisms in one watch.
